Educate. Empower. Act. The mission of Project WET is to reach children, parents, educators and communities of the world with water education. We invite you to join us in educating children about the most precious resource on the planet — water.
Project WET staff are heading to Space Center Houston on February 13th to join NBA Legends for an "All-Star" Science Education Festival designed to encourage Houston youth to study science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). The festival will tip off celebrations around the 62nd NBA All-Star Game, which will be held on February 17th in Houston. About 1,000 middle and high school students will hear directly from NBA Legends about the importance of studying STEM subjects, explore the engaging exhibits at Space Center Houston and participate in hands-on water science activities led by Project WET. Students will also be able to test their skills in a zero-gravity slam dunk chair, enjoy "Deep Sky Objects"—a music and space multi-media performance by Houston's Musiqa ensemble—get players' autographs and visit a booth sponsored by the Houston Rockets.
To learn more about the event, view the official press release or informational flyer.
